Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled

After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.

Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

The new forum software is an upgraded version of what came before, it's mostly the same but also a little different. Hopefully easier to use and more stable than before. We are learning together here, so please be patient. If you have questions, please post them here. If you have worked something out and can provide an answer,

  • Dealer service contact .

    Received a phone call from my local VW sevice lady this morning to remind me in a cheery voice that our older T5 was due for servicing again . I do not believe in getting agro or using bad language when dealing with people , so I spent five minutes explaining calmly and politely why I would NOT be using their dealership to do any service work on any of our Vans . The lady was pretty understanding as I went through the saga of what happened last year when they had our van in for some work . By the time I had finished I could tell from her response that she was in complete agreement with me on how I felt , so I kindly asked her that if the call was being recorded as most are these days that she should make her bosses aware and listen to the call . What seemed strange was this lady was not aware of costs involved in repairing some components , after I explained that I had spent over $14500 on repairs she was sort shocked that it had cost that much to fix on a van with only 135.000kays .

    Getting it off your chest would help, but nothing would dull the $14,500 pain.

      Yes I vented my spleen plenty of times last year and on this forum but I won't drag it all up again on here as everyone knows about it anyway . But whenever I get the chance Igive to VW on their Facebook page . I get asked by my customers what I think about VW in general and its the same response I love the vans to drive but just wish VW would make the technology more simple as too much seems to go wrong these days .
